Our last cat turned into a chrysalis this morning while we were at church. This one turned out to be a bright green chrysalis. That gives us 2 bright green ones and 8 brown ones. I should have written an update to yesterday’s post. We were able to watch as our last cat attached himself […]

I ran some errands yesterday morning and cat #6 was a chrysalis when we got back. At 8pm last night we though #7, #8, and #9 were close so we let Emily stay up for a little longer. Unfortunately, the cats did not understand our schedule and we sent E to bed at 10pm without […]

As we were cleaning the kitchen last night, George said “If I happened to see another caterpillar that had escaped, would you want me to tell you?” Ha, ha, funny guy! No way was I wasn’t going to fall for that! Then he says “Well, what about this one that is crawling on our paper […]

I just finished watching cat #4 turn into a chrysalis. It was truly amazing. Not what I was expecting at all! I will write more about it after I’ve had a few hours of sleep. Good night!

Arghh, just as I suspected! Two of the cats formed their chrysalis last night as we slept. I REALLY want to see one change this year! But the advantage to having 11 cats is that there are 9 more to go. Two more are getting pretty close, so hopefully we will get to watch them […]

So the adventure continues. Tonight George walks from the bedroom hallway into the kitchen and says “Hypothetically speaking, let’s say I knew where the missing caterpillar had made his chrysalis, would you want me to tell you?” Silly boy! I knew he was just trying to pull my leg and make me think he actually […]

Well, we seached the entire kitchen area last night and never found caterpillar #11. I hope she’s safely made her chrysalis by now. We moved the other 10 cats into the butterfly house. There will be no escaping from this container, but it’s a little harder to see them in there. Before we moved them, […]

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10… 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10… No matter how many times I counted, I could only find 10 caterpillars in our caterpillar box today. They are pretty sneaky and sometimes you can be staring right at one but not see him. […]

Well, it’s July 4th and we stayed home. I started this weekend out as the July 4th Grinch. It’s just not the 4th if you don’t watch a parade and spend the day at the park. But it turned out to be a pretty good day, except for the fact that I’m recovering from a […]
